The Parable of the Weeds

24

Yeshua put before them another parable. "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;

25

but while people were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, then went away.

26

When the wheat sprouted and formed heads of grain, the weeds also appeared.

27

The owner's servants came to him and said, `Sir didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where have the weeds come from?'

28

He answered, `An enemy has done this.' The servants asked him, `Then do you want us to go and pull them up?'

29

But he said, `No, because if you pull up the weeds, you might uproot some of the wheat at the same time.

30

Let them both grow together until the harvest; and at harvesttime I will tell the reapers to collect the weeds first and tie them in bundles to be burned, but to gather the wheat into my barn.'"
